Re: [iot-wg] IoT Server Platform

Hi Scott,
thanks for your reply. I have made some comments below ...

Thanks for pointing this out. The ECF certainly could be a valuable component for implementing an IoT Server Platform.
I am by no means an expert in ECF and I wonder whether ECF's protocol implementations can also be used outside of
an OSGi framework and using strict messaging semantics, i.e. in a message exchange pattern not necessarily implementing
a remote service invocation but instead simple message forwarding?
While OSGi is surely an option for implementing server side components, my personal feeling is that server side components
will be implemented using arbitrary technologies and deployment models beyond OSGi as well.

That is good to hear :-)
I think we should start to discuss opportunities where we could mutually benefit from each other's collaboration.
A first connection point might be integration of ECF and Kura?

That would be great, I'm looking forward to meet any of you guys there!
